recautionary measure, and with a view to the preservation of human life, the rate of speed of steam-vessels navigating between Deptford and London Bridge should be reduced ; and that the attention of the proprietors of steam vessels frequenting the river Thames should be called to the object, as well as to the number of passengers received on board those boats, until the sanction of Parliament shall have been obtained to such remedial measures as shall hereafter be deemed expedient. August 12, 1836. ‘'.*- ~''a AUSTRALIA. By the arrival of the Elizabeth, Taylorson, papers have been received from Launceston to the 26th of May, and from Hobart Town to the Ist of June. The Lieutenant- Governor's address to the Legislative Council at Launces ton gives a very favourable picture of the state of the colony. The following is an extract : " It is not from the number of the inhabitants, or the extent of their possessions, that I form a favourable opinion of the state of the territory. It is in the annual augmenta tion in commerce and agriculture that I perceive the evi dence of its growing importance." He then compares the official returns of the imports and exports, which present the following results : Imports. Exports. 1835 £583,646 £320,679 1834 476,617 203,522 Increase 107,029 117,157 Tonnage. 1835 Vessels cleared outwards 169 43,476 1834... l5O 33,441 Increase 19 10,035 1835 Vessels entered inwards 160 42.001 1834 134 29,588 Increase 26... 22,413 " The speech then goes on to say, " Neither is it in commerce alone that the signs of general improvement are so strikingly displayed. There is no parallel of such rapid success, except in the instance of the colony of Nei• South Wales. " The agricultural interest is already, from the high value and limited extent of available land, verging upon the division of the relative classes of landlord and tenant usu ally to be found in all countries, nor has the creation of rent been accompanied by such a decline in the rate of profit as might have been anticipated. The accession last year to the trade of the colony was greater than that of any previous period. The means of the population must therefore have been increasing in even a greater proportion than formerly. Nor are the causes of this difficult of detection ; they are readily found in the im provement of the price of wool, in the more plentiful and effective supply of labour so beneficially afforded by the bank ing establishments, and in the advantageous investment of capital afforded by the whale fisheries. " The value of cattle and sheep, the principal source of colonial wealth, depending as it did chiefly upon arrivals of new emigrants, was formerly liable to frequent and extreme fluctuation. But the steady market opened of late years for the wool of the colony in England has, in conjunction with other causes, trebled the price, not only of ordinary fine wooled sheep, but indirectly even of cattle, and to a certain but more limited extent of produce generally ; for it has established a standard return from all farming operations. Convict discipline has been manifestly improving in all its departments, and consequently, great progress has been made in the bridges, roads, and wharfs ; so that, whilst the main end of transportation is answered, public facilities, as regards both agriculture and commerce, arc now almost everrvhere rapidly extending. Providence seems to have especially favoured one particular district in the vicinity of Galway, by furnishing on it, independent of the black marble quarries (now exten sively worked), the most abundant supply of superior ma terials for the manufacture of glass, alum, and superfine pottery. The sand is of the sand-stone quality, nearly white, and the earth was discovered unexpectedly in a pit or excavation made on a hill to the depth of twenty-five feet, all of the same solid substance, but varying in colour and becoming almost black and hard towards the bottom, at which geologists will be surprised and puzzled to hear an oak tree lay buried, which had been evidently felled with an axe. What the underneath strata may be has not yet been investigated.—Galway Patriot. A Correspondent of the Hereford Journal says he has successfully employed the folloVving mixture for the last sixteen years to provide against smutty wheat :—" Two Ounces of blue vitriol to a gallon of water, or a pound to eight gallons, and so on according to the quantity of wheat to be sown, and the size of the tub or vessel it is to be steeped in. The vitriol should be dissolved in a few gal lons of hot water, and what more is wanted to make up the quantity may be added cold. The wheat to be steeped in a tripe, and limed in the usual way the night before sowing." HALLEy's Com ET.—This cornet, although only of late celebrity, may be traced with every degree of pro bability to a period of 1:30 years before Christ, as being the first time it was observed. In 1280 its appearance was at tended with the most extraordinary circumstances : during that year the beat was intense, with great inundations. In the spring of the following year the Mediterranean was froze►,, and goods were conveyed across in carts. This ' comet so organized the atmosphere that a year or two after there was thunder and lightning for 15 days successive. At its neat return in 105, the Baltic S was frozen over for 14 weeks between the Danish and Swedish islands. In 1455, its next appearance, there were great rains, inundations, and the Baltic was covered with ice from Mecklenhe►g to Den mark during the following winter. Its next appearance was mar the year 1531. Rome, Antwerp, and Lisbon, suffered from inundations ; and a food is recorded to have taken place in England, extending from Sornersetshire to Norfolk. The summer was intensely hot, yet on the 12:11 of June there was frost, and the succeeding winter intensely cold. We now approach the last appearance of the comet, and let philosophers judge if it has effects or not on the atmos phere ; tha unusual cold temperature of the summer, and exceedingly wet and stormy autumn, which has rendered the result of the latter harvest eatremely doubtful, and has so organized the atmosphere that the approaching winter, I have no doubt, will be intensely cold.—Currespondent of the Caledonian Mercury. EAST CORNWALL.—On Saturday last Sir Hus sey Vivian arrived at Glynn, and on Monday a deputation appointed by the electors of the eastern division had an in terview with the Gallant General, which was highly satis factory to both parties. It will be gratifying to the electors to know that 170 have authority, on which we can fully depend, for assuring them that Sir William Trelawney's seat is secure beyond the possibility of danger ; and that Sir H. Vivian has a pledged majority, even giving Lord Eliot the benefit of every doubtful vote. Our gallant townsman has, therefore, good ground for the statement he has made with so much modesty, that he looks for ward with the utmost confidence to becoming Sir Wil liam's colleague ; and for the joy he derives from the fact, that the good sense of the Reformers of Cornwall has led them to forget the shades of difference that exist in their political opinions , an d t h at t h e attempts o f t h e i r enem i es to sow dissension among them have been rendered unavail ing.—West Briton. The Journal du Commerce contains a very curious article on the value of Coffee as an article of merchandise, and on the effects produced on its sale and consumption through duties imposed on its importation by various Govern ments. The quantities purchased from the growers by the principal Maritime Powers was, at the periods indicated, as follow : United States 1832 England 1834 47,769,00011n. 41,865,000 France 1834 40,022,000 The Netherlands lB3O 2 9,500,000 Other European States 10,000,000 Total amount of Coffee imported 169,156,000 From the above it is remarked, that thepe . opleof the U n it e d States, with that acuteness which distinguishes them in commercial affairs, have appreciated the importance of this commodity, and are the largest purchaser. They purchase 47,769,000 lbs., while England takes but 41,865,000 lbs. While England exports only 15,250,000 lbs., the exports of Coffee by the United States are 34,560,000 lbs. The con sumption of the latter is given at 15,216, 000 lbs., while that of England reaches 23,785,000 lbs. It is estimated that in each country every individual on the average con sumes annually one pound of Coffee, while in France the average consumption does not exceed ten ounces for each inhabitant. This i s s ho w n from official returns to be exactly what it was half a century ago. England consumed till the year 1824 but at the rate of six ounces for each individual, or 8,262,000 lbs. Since that period her consumption has been nearly trebled, and now amounts to 23,785,000 lbs. This has been caused by a reduction of the duty (formerly 128 per cent.) to half the amount. The revenue under this head, at first depressed, has, from the increased consump tion, risen to be more than half as much again as it was before the duty was lowered. In France no change has been made with regard to the tariff on Coffee since 1816. From the example of England it is now strongly urge d th a t similar course may be pursued with advantag e t o th e re enue, and with a certainty of conferring great benefits on --- the French people. Tuesday evening the northern lights again illu mined the northern hemisphere, and had a very splendid effect. The phenomena caused an appearance as if there was a dltant fire raging of great magnitude. They have been mole frequent this autumn than they have been for sever4-past years. ,N; • SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERSALL' S— YESTERDA Y.

There was a ♦ery large attendance of sportsmen yesterday at the enclosure of the Chalk Farm Tavern, to witness the shooting of some of the crack London shots in Handicap Sweepstakes. The first shooting was at five birds each, and the competitors consisted of Messrs. Groom, Bloodsworth, Day, Ryan, and Lawrence. Bloodswortb, Groom, and Ryan, were at twenty-four yards rise, the other two gentlemen at twenty-one. The charge was limited to two ounces, and bet ting was in favour of Groom and Bloodsworth, who were taken for choice against the field. Mr. Bloodsworth killed all his birds in admirable style, Mr. Groom missed his second, Mr. Day killed three, as did Mr. Lawrence. The next Sweepstakes was of two sovereigns each, amongst Bloodsworth, Humphries, Day, Hill, Wilson, Ryan, and Law rence. Mr. Hill won by killing four, Mr. Wilson killed three, Mr. Bloodsworth two. Some other Sweepstakes followed, in one of which Mr. Lawrence was victorious. The Birds were supplied by Barber, and some of the finest ever trapped. HUNTING APPOINTMENTS.

" MANY A SLIP."--The late Doncaster Races, however attended with advantage to winners of many classes and callings, yet in their results to others were little expected to come off with such untoward circumstances as the following brief narrative will show :—lt appears that a gentleman, residing between Doncaster and York, had lost a considerable sum of money both in betting and playing, the latter, however, in a manner by no means satisfactory to him. Still as he lost, he must pay, and did so by two checks, one for about 7001., and the other for somewhat about 1,0001. upon a banking house at York. Two of the play gentlemen immediately started in a post-chaise to York, in order that the check might be presented as soon as the doors of the banking-house were open on the fol lowing morning, but the drawer of the check was before hand with them, and, to their consternation, when they presented it, the banker's clerk told them they had received instructions not to honour it. This was an unexpected surprise, and back the parties posted again to Doncaster, where a consultation of their confederates was held. The boasted success of the party in obtaining so respectable a check was trumpeted about—the story was credited—and the sum of 1,000/. was obtained on the larger check at a respectable banking-house in Doncaster. Flushed with success, some of the booty was distributed, but before the principal agent could get clear away the trick was disco vered. One of the utterers at York was apprehended, and is, we understand, fully committed for trial. For ob vious reasons we keep back the names at present. CHURCH EXTENSION.—A meeting of those fa vourable to the scheme of the General Assembly for ex tending the Church of Scotland was held in Perth on Monday. The Provost was appointed to take the chair. Nearly the whole members of the Presbytery of Perth, and various other Rev. Gentlemen, members of the Synod, were present. After the several appeals to the Christian philanthropy of the audience to support the Church of Scotland, and contribute to its extension, it was resolved to establish a local society in Perth. A letter from Linz of the 10th instant, announces that Charles X. had quitted the castle of Kirchberg, in Lower Austria, and had reached Linz on the Bth instant, with the Duke of Bordeaux and his sister. They were pro ceeding to Goritz, where the Duke and Duchess of Angon- Lome were expecting them, and on their road intend stopping at Salzbourg, to visit the Princess of Beira, and her ne phews, the Infants of Spain. Charles X. has completed his 79th year. M. de Blacas arrived at Linz with the ex-Royal Family, and accompanies the ex-King in his journey. The tops of the Highland mountains have been covered with snow for some weeks, and it is doubtful whe ther there will be harvest at all in many places. To this unfortunate state of the agriculture, and consequent want of winter fodder, is to be added the general failure of the herring fishery. In Zetland the boats were overtaken with a gale on the Ist of September, which completely dis persed them, and obliged the me❑ to cut and run, by which about 300 of their nets were lost. This state of things is intimately connected with the severity of the season in the higher latitudes—and that in severe seasons immense sho:ls of small whales visit our coast. As far south as the Calf, Island of Man, they have been seen this summer, and along the Hebrides, Orkney, and Zetland Islands. In Sand Sound Voc alone a shoal of these animals was driven ashore by the fishermen, which yielded no less than three email sloop loads of blubber. At Davis's Straits, as we learn by the arrival of a clean ship at Peterhead, when she left the ice, no fewer than 16 ships were frozen Glasgow Evening Post. The Dissenters of Corsham and its neighbourhood have sent an address to Paul Methuen, M.P. for North Wilts, expressive of their thanks for his attention to the public interests, and of their sentiments, &c., regarding church-rates. Mr. Methuen, in his answer to the address, observes—" I am rejoiced to find that the Protestant Dis senters are among those who are well satisfied with my conduct in Parliament. As I have hitherto attended to their more immediate interests, they may be assured I shall persevere in that course which has more than once procured for me the expression of their entire approbation ; and I have every hope that we will obtain redress for all substantial grievances, if the present Government be not foiled in its good intention by those who always have been, and always will be, opposed to every measure in favour of public liberty, either civil or religious." On Wednesday last an explosion of fire-damp took place in the same pit where eleven individuals were so lately deprived of life, the particulars of which it was our melan choly duty to relate two or three weeks since. There were several men in the pit at the time of the explosion, but only two suffered any injury from it. One man named Riley, was so much hurt that his life is despaired of. This poor man narrowly escaped the fate of his companions at the time of the first accident.—Falmouth Packet. A short time ago Lieutenant-Colonel Elasser, an officer of Transylvania, being believed to be dead of the cholera, at Hermanstadt, in that province, was hastily buried. On examining his effects a ring of great value was missing, and his servant suspected of having stolen it. The man insisted that his master never took it off his finger, and consequently the coffin was taken up, in order to ascertain the fact ; when, to the horror of those present, it was evi dent that the Colonel had been buried alive, as the body was turned on its face, and the flesh of one of the arms had been eaten off. Mr. William Hirst, of Leeds, the celebrated fine cloth manufacturer, and whose talent, benevolence, and in genuity have procured him the title of " the benefactor of Yorkshire," came up to take the benefit of the Insolvent Act on Saturday, at Bradford. He was opposed by Mr. Leather and Mr. Naylor. His debts amounted to 11,0001. Mr. Hi rst h as put f ort h a s t a t eme nt of his affairs, in which he h as re fl ecte d on t h e c h aracters o f hi s o pposing creditors. In carrying on his large manufactory he had sunk a lar g e private ert fortun e i n th e erec ti on a nd invention of machinery ; ihe mortgaged his his estates, and ultimately sold them to pay son, from whom He mn n t e h y e n wd gave e received, e t d h , e andmanufactorytliis money t o washis paid to some creditors, beforean t thereby a preference given, on Mr, Hirst which he was opposedmCourt. public Chief Com missioner said that spoke not in his judicial capacity, but was swell-wisherprcperty ; he between to his country. Could not some arrangement as bmad him and his opposing creditors, by which the e be spared the pain of adjudicatin g against man who a had been one of his countr y 's g re atest benefactors? It was found impossible, however, to bring about an r a rangement, and the Chief Commissioner, who w as ff a ected to tears (as was a most crowded auditory in the Court), passed sentence of nine months' impriso nment from the date of filing hispe tition ;• and the unfortuna te g entleman was conveyed bacl: to Rothwell gaol, the people testifying their respect for him by uncovering their heads as he passed.—West Riding Herald. A boy was employed to attend with his donkey the other day, upon a lady at Southport, who wished to ride out. There being an appearance of rain, the lady declined going, but paid the stipulated charge, observing, that it was all the same whether she rode or not.—" No, Ma'am," an swered the boy, looking very sentimental, " its not all the same, for I shall not have the pleasure of your company."

HAMBURG, SEPT. 28, 1836. n UR Friends, and all those who may have to write to us, are requested to be particular in directing, HEINE BROTHERS, in HAMBURGH, and to observe, that a letter with one inclosure doubles the Postage only, but several inclosures would by far increase the same. Thus 101., 2.0/., or 301., for instance, if remitted in One Bank of Eng land Note would only cause double Postage, but 101. remitted in two notes, would be liable to a much higher charge. It is there fore most advisable, for any Person having to remit Money to Ham burgh, to forward the amount in One Note; or having to receive Money from Hamburgh, to receive the same in One Note, when ever possible. Of course remittances from Hamburgh to England, surpassing the usual amount of One Bank of England Note, may rather be made in Bills of Exchange, on London. To save expenses that may as well be avoided, we request our Correspondents not to overlook these particulars. HEINE i3ROTHERS. LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 28, 1836. The following important letter appears in the Ame rican Papers, which arrived this morning. It was written by an eminent mercantile House in London (the Times says T. \VIGGIN and Co.) to their Agents at New York and at Boston, who have circulated it, by means of the Press, through the United States. It will be seen, by a reference to our City article, that it has, as might have been expected, occasioned no small sensation among the capitalists and merchants of the metropolis : " London, Aug. 20, 1836. " Dear Sir,—We were informed to-day by an active in telligent Director of the Bank of England, that more British capital has been absorbed by American and continental houses than can be spared, without injury to the commereiAl and manufacturing interests of this country—that the di- rectors of the Bank have decided that they will take mea sures to check the sale of such securities, by refusing to discount bills of exchange drawn in those countries on houses here, however high may be their standing or credit. This decision places all Louses in jeopardy that do business with American dealers in British merchandise, because remittances are usually made in payment for such merchandise in bills of exchange on such houses ; and if the decision referred to is rigidly enforced, such remit tances will be unavailable till due. Under such circum stances, we deem it prudent to state, that we do not feel bound to continue our usual facilities to dealers in British merchandise, and that we reserve to ourselves the right of regulating them according to existing circum stances. We hope this decision will not be rigidly en forced, and, if not, that we shall be able to act with more liberality than we now think probable. It is desirable that our correspondents should be made acquainted with this state of things, that they may be governed by it in making out orders for merchandise the ensuing season, which we hope will he unusually small." _ _ The mercantile community at large have much rea son to complain of a proceeding so unfair—to use a gentle term—on the part of a Bank Director, as that of communicating to favoured individuals the informa tion which ought either to be kept a profound secret, or laid before the public in the most unreserved manner. We give no opinion as to the propriety or impropriety of the course pursued by the Bank of England, with re spect to bills drawn by American houses, for the pur pose of increasing the metallic circulation of America at the expense of our own. That may, or may not, be a right course ; but if a suspicion is to be thrown upon all American bills—if those drawn against our ma nufactured goods, in the regular bona fide transactions of commerce are to be 'refused—the usual privilege of discount at the Bank of England under the pretence of preventing the exportation of the precious metals—it appirs to us that not only a severe injury will be done to our manufacturing interests, but that the osten sible purpose of the Bank will be frustrated by the di minution of our exports, which it should be our busi ness to increase, if we wish the exchanges foreign countries with countries to tu rn i n our favour. l large export trade, implying, as it does, a great consumption of our manufactures abroad, has hitherto justly been considered a sign of national prosperity ; yet see the effect produced by the Bank policy T. Our merchants now deprecate extensive dealings with their foreign customers, and w e actually find a first rate firm expressing a t h e ensuing season ma a y li b i e lo u u n g u h su th a e lly br s e m ac af i ll o '; hope that the orders of their correspondents " for mer chandize emnacteteorns itlhaevepaturtrnoefdthoeutp, peaching Director is the con A fid s same, little actual mischief, we apprehend, will result from it. Much to the credit of the house to which the communication of the intentions of the Bank was made, before it was made to the public, it gave the earliest possible publicity in America to the informa tion which it had received. At the North Derbyshire Reform Dinner, which took place at Chesterfield on Wednesday last, and was given by the electors of that Division to their Repre sentatives in Parliament, Mr. GISBORNZ, who was present, addressed the company at 'greater length on the subject of the House of Lords than has yet been done by any of the Reform Members. He observed that he was opposed to the proposition for creating more Peers ; for, in the first place, it would be the means of taking a million a-year out of the rental of the country, and locking it up in the House of Lords, inasmuch as no number short of a hundred new crea tions would answer the purpose, and each new Peer must at least be in the possession of ten thousand pounds per annum ; and secondly, because it would render the House of Lords infinitely more unma nageable than at present, and because also the country could obtain no security or bond, that the new Peers would vote in the way that was expected by those at whose instance they were created. To the proposition for making the House of Lords a responsible, by making them an elective body, the Hon. Member expressed himself equally averse, and for these reasons, that "he was a great admirer of the forms of the old Constitution, and could imagine nothing more glaringly incomplete than a new one, unmellowed by time, and unsanctified by'old associations." Now this is sophistry, not argument—a begging of the question instead of a grappling with it. All Constitutions must at one time or other have been " unsanctified by old associations." Mr. GISBORNE'S objection, therefore, amounts to a mere nullity, or rather it has no mean ing at all. Supposing it, however, to be a tenable one, then by a like process of reasoning the Hon. Gentle man must have been an advocate for the continuance of the boroughmongers in Parliament, because they were a nuisance which was mellowed by time, and sanctified by old associations. Having discussed t hese two points, Mr. GISBORNE next proceeded to deve lope his own plan for bringing the Lords to a sense of their duty. He observed that " he would do away with the positive power of the House of Lords by reducing it to a suspensive power. He would give them the power of reviewing every measure that passed the House of Commons, and that they should have a power to suspend the measure, for it was frequently very useful to the country, that it should be called upon to consider its own measures." This pro position is a reasonable one, so far as it goes ; but its defect is, that it is only a half remedy, instead of being a whole one. The evils of the House of Lords must be remedied by the application of a stronger nostrum than Mr. GISBORNE suggests, or the next Session will be little more effective than the last one. A pamphlet purporting to embody practical views and suggestions for the permanent improvement of Ire land, in the form of a letter addressed to the Marquis of LANSDOWNE, has been submitted to our notice. We know nothing whatever of the writer, except that his name, as we learn from the pamphlet, is LYNCH, and that he has devoted a considerable portion of his time to the consideration of the best means of ameliorating the condition of the Irish poor. As every suggestion which has for its object the re moval of human misery is more or less entitled to some share of public attention, we should be wanting in our duty to our readers, did we not submit to them, in a condensed form, Mr. LYNcres views on the most practical method of improving the physical and moral state of the working classes in Ireland. We are not so wedded to a Poor Law system of improvement as to exclude the examination of every other ; neither are we disposed to withhold our support from any remedial measure approved of by the people of Ireland, though, in our opinion, falling far short, in its operation, of the great good which might be achieved by the working of a Poor Law based on, and embodying the recornmen tions of the Commissioners in their third report. Our great desire is to see something or other• done for the good of Ireland. We want a practical demonstration of British sympathy in favour of nearly two millions of indigent, starving fellow-creatures. If one remedy fail there can be but little difficulty in substituting another, and even the most signal failure would be attended with a temporary relief to thousands, without entailing upon any class greater misery than is now shared directly or indirectly by all. Men of all parties, creeds, and fac tions, unite in admitting that something must he done to ameliorate the condition of Ireland. We want that something to be done soon, in order that if it do not succeed, another something may be substituted in its stead. We know Ireland well enough to be satisfied that she only wants fair play, and equal chances of im provement with England and Scotland, to rival them in enterprise, in industry, and in social order. Mr. LYNCH proposes, in the first place, that a Bill be passed, authorizing the LORD LIEUTENANT of Ireland to appoint Commissioners, to superintend the reclaiming of all waste lands and bogs throughout the kingdom :—that these Commissioners shall have placed at their disposal 1,000,0001. of Exchequer bills, secured on the entire property of the proprie tors of the reclaimed and reclaimable wastes and bogs, in proportion to the full amount, with interest, expen ded on each estate :—that the law to this effect shall be so framed as to enable proprietors to give such se curities, otherwise unable to do so, in consequence of mortgages and other settlements of a similar nature : that the Act shall further empower all proprietors of wastes to grant leases of them for a term not exceeding sixty years, and that during that time the land shall re main tithe free. Presuming the law passed, the Com missioners appointed, the Exchequer bills issued, and the landlords favourable to the system, Mr. LYNCH thus points out the way in which it ought to be made to work : The landlords are first to apply to the Commission ers, with plans, &c., stating the sum of money which each may require in order to effect certain improvements upon his estate. If the application be approved of, the Commmissioners, after obtaining security, shall issue one third of the sum agreed upon ; and when it is as certained that this money has been properly expended, another third shall be given, and so on till the whole is absorbed by the improvements. When the land is reclaimed, the Commissioners are to cause it to be di vided into parcels of not less than twenty acres, and to erect on each a cottage, with suitable offices, and also to enclose a garden. In three years these farms would let at 201. each, and as he calculates the expense of clearing the land at 51. an acre, and the building of a c omfortable dwelling, with offices, at 501., the rental would return an interest upon the capital of 134 per cent. The effect of this plan, in his opinion, would be that in fourteen years the whole of the Ex chequer bills would be redeemed ; the landlord would receive 11. an acre for land, from which he does not now draw a penny in twenty years ; Ireland would be all under a state of high cultivation ; the inhabitants would be provided with an abundance of food and la bour ; the great bulk of the population would have an interest in preserving public order ; education would be generally diffused ; and the necessity for any system of compulsory maintenance entirely obviated and re moved. Such, in substance, are Mr. LYNCH'S views, and though we cannot allow them the merit of originality, they are unostentatiously put forth, and certainly en tainly entitled to the consideration of those who refuse to join us in calling for a Poor Law for Ireland. In the absence of a Poor Law, we should certainly rejoice to see such a system as Mr. LYNCH recommends adopted by the Government. Among the political rumours in circulation on the subject of foreign affairs, there is one which we con sider worthy of the notice of our Government. It is stated—on what authority we know not—that the King of the FRENCH has entered into a treaty with Russia, the purport of which is, that for the recognition of the independence of the Belgian Crown by the CZAIi, LOUIS PHILIPPE will tacitly leave the Peninsula to its fate. We cannot conceive what great interest France can particularly have in purchasing, at the ex pense of faith and honour, an empty acknowledgment which cannot be long withheld by any Power, the more especially as the Belgians no longer dread the menaces of Holland. To suppose that family ambi tion alone has led to the ratification of so disgraceful a compact is more than we are disposed to do, before it is proved that the treaty really exists, and that it origi nated with the French Cabinet. We have lately had so much reason to suspect the designs of the CITI ZEN-KING, that it will excite no surprise, if, on some occasions, we appear to over-estimate the im portance of isolated facts, and to pay too much regard to unauthenticated assertions. We may further ob serve, that were our Government more alive to the importance of the intrigues which are now carried on in the French capital, most probably the Press of this country would considcr it a duty to exercise a greater degree of caution, in dwelling upon the conduct of our Continental Allies. The first act of the Provincial Parliament of Lower Canada—the address in answer to the Speech from the Throne—is not calculated to allay the fears of those who apprehend that there is no immediate pro spect of a perfect reconciliation between the House of Assembly and the Legislative Council. The Session was opened on the 27th of September, when the Lieutenant-Governor addressed a speech to both branches of the Legislature, deploring the injuries which the public service had sustained in consequence of their dissensions, and recommending, in the KING'S name, a mutual forgetfulness of past differences, and a prompt regard to the absolute necessity of no longer withholding the supplies. This is all we need say of a document, which, as soon as received, we submitted to the public, accompanied by some observations of our own. We have now before us the address of the House of Assembly in answer to the speech of his Excellency the Lieut.-Governor, in which the Legislative Council is openly and violently denounced as systematically opposed to the rights, liberties, social happiness, and education of the Canadian population ! The following extract from the Address, is conclusive on this head : " Your Excellency, in limiting the subjects to which you have called our attention under the present circumstances, has no doubt been actuated not only by the motives ex pressed by your Excellency, but, moreover, by the consi deration that although this House has, during the great length of the last session, zealously laboured for the wel fare of the Province, and with that view adopted a great many measures which we deemed to be in accordance with the intentions of his Majesty's Government, our labours have been rendered abortive, in consequence of the systematic rejection by the Legislative Council, of all the projects of law calculated to remedy the past, to protect the people for the future, to enlighten them and advance their moral wel fare, to improve their social and physical condition, and to entrust them with those powers and influence in the Con stitution, the administration of laws, and the management of their local affairs, to which they are entitled, and which are guaranteed to them by the very principle of Govern ment. The circumstance of that body having continued unchanged must necessarily preclude the idea that his Majesty intended to harass the country by the repetition, during the present Session, of scenes so discreditable to the vicious Constitution which is attempted to uphold. Your Excellency, as well as authorities of the mother country, must now be convinced that the best intentions of the head of the Provincial Government, and partial Reforms in the details of the Administration, must constantly prove abor tive when opposed to a system convulsed by elements essentially adverse, and in which we behold, on the one hand, the people, in conjunction with this House, de manding the unrestrained exercise of the powers and rights of British subjects, with a Government established upon a just basis applicable to the condition of the province, to gether with the maintenance of guaranteed, endeared institu tions ; —and, on the other hand, a branch over which the country has no controul, which has invariably shewn itself hostile to its institutions and its inhabitants, and which has not ceased to excite and to foster attempts at disorganization, oppression, divisions, and hatreds, political ascendency, and exclusive rights for one portion of the people, and degrada tion for the mass of Canadians of every origin, the most attached to the permanent interests of the country and the best adapted to strengthen the Government. It is between these two irreconcilable systems that we trust his Majesty's Government have come to a determination in accordance with our humble prayers. If our hopes be realized, we feel certain that the rules which your Excellency declares to have guided you in the discharge of your arduous duties, caution, forbearance, and the exercise of a liberal policy, cannot fail of success." It is stated in the New York papers received yester day that the roof of the workhouse at Rochester (U.S.), upon which upwards of a hundred persons had collected to witness a balloon ascent, suddenly fell in, with a tremendous crash, by which accident a considerable number of men and boys sustained serious injuries. Among the sufferers some were found to have broken their limbs and their backs, and one of them had an axe-handle forced completely through his leg. It was afterwards announced that two or three had died of their wounds. An old man, named Fescant, 86 years of age, who has been in the Hospice des Veillards in Paris for several years, some short time since committed suicide by blowing his brains out. He had adopted the singular idea that even if enjoying good health, and without any infirmity of body, no one ought to live beyond his 80th year. He bad previously made many attempts to destroy himself. It is stated in a letter received from Madrid at Brussels, that on the proclamation of the Constitution of the Cortes, General Van Halen, who commanded some troops at Molina, declared that he acknowledged no right in any but the Cortes to require a new oath, and he accor dingly sent in his resignation. MILITARY SUBORDINATION.-A somewhat lu dicrous circumstance occurred on Wednesday last, at the Royal Marine Infirmary, Chatham. The surgeon had or dered four privates of Royal Marines (recruits) to be brought to the infirmary to be vaccinated. Previous to their arrival there, a fatigue party, consisting of a corporal and four privates, was sent to the infirmary to remove some medicine to the dock-yard for some men-of-war. The cor poral was not made acquainted with the duty he was re quired for at the infirmary ; and on inquiring he was told that the men were to go into the ward to be vaccinated. This, of course, astonished the men ; but they were told that it was the surgeon's order, and, like good soldiers they obeyed accordingly. After the operation was performed, and the other four men had arrived at the infirmary, the mistake was discovered, and caused no little amusement. A peck of fine ripe strawberries were gathered last week from the gardens belonging to Sir Wm. Anson, Bart., Grundisburgh Hall, Suffolk. Among the novelties of Alexandria is the promotion to the rank of Bey of Dr. Naylor, an eminent English oc culist, whose professional services, during his residence there, have excited the attention and admiration of the Pasha. We understand that some disturbance is apprehended among the Creeks and Cherokees West. The Indian country at this time is in a state of considerable excitement. The Creeks and Cherokees have held a secret council, at which, it is believed, they formed an alliance to sustain the present Creek chief, Roily Wlntosh, in authority against the claims of Nea Mathea, who was the second chief of all the Creeks East, and is now at the head of a numerous band of his people, approaching their new country West.

Two remarkablyquick arrivals were posted in Lloyd's books yesterday—the one was that of the Castle Huntley, from London, which arrived out at Bombay after a passage of only 77 days from the Land's-end ; and the other the Parkfield, from Liverpool, which arrived at Bombay after being out only 78 days. The Prince of Capua, with his consort, Miss Smith, and the Count Matuszevic, with the Earl of Wiltshire as his conzpagnon du voyage, are at present at Malta. The Prince, who arrived on the 22d of August, has hired a handsome residence on the sea-side, out of the walls of Valetta, where it seems to be his wish to live in a retired manner, until he may be graciously allowed to return to the dominions of his Royal brother. NOVEL ANNOUNCEMENT.—A corn doctor has adopted the following novel mode of advertising for patients in a provincial Journal :—" Not yet dead !
